Well, it's a normal hotel. It's one of the cheapest hotels in the area, and it's not particularly dirty either. There are almost no services and you have to bring your own amenities. As someone who frequently uses this hotel, it is a passable hotel.People who are not used to business hotels may find it a bit old-fashioned, but it is still a normal business hotel.The service is different from that of a luxury hotel. Well, I guess it's something like this... I guess calling it a 3 star hotel is an exaggeration...lolIf I had to be honest, I would like the rooms to be cleaned a little more carefully...Well, it's an average hotel. It's one of the cheaper hotels in the area, and it's not particularly dirty. There's almost no service, and you have to get your own amenities. As someone who uses it often, this hotel passes muster.People who aren't used to business hotels might find it a little old-fashioned, but it's just an average business hotel.It's not the same service as a luxury hotel. I guess that's about right...If I could be greedy, I'd like the rooms to be cleaned a little more carefully...
